Keeping It Real
With James H. Boyd
Thoughts On Life, Faith and Other Profundities
Welcome to “Keeping It Real”
Hi friends! I’m Jame
Denominations?
Jesus prayed that His followers would be one, yet Christianity is divided into thousands of denominations and traditions. Are denominations inherently wrong, or can God work through them despite their imperfections? A biblical look at division, tradition, reform, and unity in the Body of Christ.
The “Worship Wars”
Christians have debated worship styles for centuries. From Gregorian chant and traditional hymns to guitars and contemporary worship, musical preferences have often divided believers. But what does the Bible actually require? A look at the history of the “worship wars” and why biblical faithfulness, Christian liberty, and worship in spirit and truth matter more than musical style.
“Personally Opposed to Abortion, But..?”
Many people say they are personally opposed to abortion but do not believe their convictions should determine the law. But what exactly does it mean to be “personally opposed”? If abortion involves the life of an unborn human being, the question cannot remain merely personal. This article examines the moral and logical problems behind the familiar “personally opposed, but…” argument.
My Pentecostal Journey 2: Further Reflections
Nearly four decades into my Pentecostal journey, I remain deeply grateful for the movement while recognizing its shortcomings. Here are some further reflections on the gifts of the Spirit, Full Gospel Christianity, and what Pentecostalism can both give to and learn from the wider Church.
Making Peace with the Past
Everyone has regrets, failures, or painful memories that threaten to define their future. But through Jesus Christ, yesterday does not have to determine who you become. Drawing from Scripture and personal ministry experience, this message explores forgiveness, repentance, healing, and the hope of pressing forward in Christ instead of remaining imprisoned by the past.
